What to Wear for Ice Floating in Rovaniemi
What to wear ice floating in Rovaniemi: the suit every float lends, what goes under it, the floats that lend winter clothing and the one that leaves it out (November 2026).
Every float lends you the floating suit; what you bring is what goes under it and what keeps you warm outside the water. For Nordic Adventures’ Daytime Ice Floating in Rovaniemi, Frozen Lake Experience, the only thing on the bring list is socks. It costs US$131.17 a person for two or more (checked November 2026), with hotel pickup, the suit, a guide, and hot drinks and cookies.

Under the suit
On Safartica’s floats the rescue suit goes on over your own clothing, covers your whole body and, in its words, keeps you dry. Nordic Adventures lists socks to bring on its daytime float and comfortable clothes on its evening float. Clothes you can move in and warm socks fit all of those lines.
Outside the water
The time around the float is spent outdoors at the lake, in the drive, and indoors for the warm-up: Nordic Adventures serves its hot drinks and cookies in a cottage. Two floats lend winter clothing for that time, both Safartica’s; NordicUnique Travels lends overalls, boots and gloves only on its 6.5-hour day with ice fishing. Winter clothing is not included on Nordic Adventures’ evening float on Viator, so bring your own coat, hat and gloves for it.
